Abstract
An efficient and reproducible method for regeneration of commercial and pure lines of tropical butternut squash (Cucurbita moschata) plants via somatic embryogenesis was developed. The influence of genotype, explant source, N6-benzylaminopurine (BAP), 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5-T) concentration on somatic embryogenesis induction was investigated. Friable embryogenic calli was produced from zigotic embryos (53-56%) and cotyledons from seedlings (70%) of C. moschata cv. Sello de Oro cultured on callus induction medium (CIM) supplemented with 0.5 mg/l or 3.5 mg/l 2,4-D. No embryogenic calli was obtained from leaf segments of C. moschata cv. Sello de Oro cultured on CIM supplemented with different concentrations of BAP and 2,4-D and cotyledons from seedlings of C. moschata cv. PVG 04 cultured on CIM with BAP and 2,4,5-T. Embryogenic calli induction was achieved in 75% C. moschata pure lines evaluated and calli percentage frequency range from 5% to 34%. Successful acclimatization of squash in vitro plants was achieved in the greenhouse and in the field. Regenerated plants appeared morphologically normal and set flowers and fruits with seeds that could germinate normally. Rev. Biol. Trop. 57 (Suppl. 1): 119-127. Epub 2009 November 30.
En este estudio se desarrolló un método eficiente y reproducible para la regeneración de líneas puras de la planta tropical Cucurbita moschata mediante la vía de embriogénesis somática. Además se investigó acerca de la influencia del genotipo, transplante, y la concentración de N6-benzylaminopurina (BAP), 2,4-diclorofenoxyacetico ácido (2,4-D) y 2,4,5-triclorofenoxyacetico ácido (2,4,5-T) en la inducción de embriogénesis somática. Los callos embriogenéticos viables fueron producidos de embriones zigóticos (53-56%) y cotiledones de semillas (70%) de C. moschata cv. Sello de Oro cultivados en un medio de inducción de callos (CIM) suplementado con 0.5 mg/l o 3.5 mg/l 2,4-D. Los callos no embriogénicos fueron obtenidos de segmentos de hojas de C. moschata cv. Sello de Oro cultivados con CIM suplementado con diferentes concentraciones de BAP y 2,4-D y cotiledones de semillas de C. moschata cv. PVG 04 cultivado con CIM con BAP y 2,4,5-T. La inducción de callos embriogenéticos fue exitosa en un 75% de las líneas puras evaluadas de C. moschata y el porcentaje de frecuencia de los callos fue de 5% a 34%. Se logró una adecuada aclimatización de las plantas in vitro tanto en el invernadero como en el campo. Las plantas regeneradas fueron normales morfológicamente, y las flores y frutos poseen semillas que pueden germinar normalmente.
